I know this is stupid, but once Thanos got his hands on the reality gem, why couldn't he just alter reality so that he had all the stones?

Because they don't work that way. The real question is why he didn't just create more resources (or at least force everyone to conserve) instead of killing half the people.

Would they be genuine?
Would that then be real-reality?
Or altered reality?
And does that part even matter?
We’re in altered reality now, yes?
So we should be finding out in A4?

Thanos doesn't believe death to be punishment, nor is the method he's doing it physically painful. It's also like believing the cure to heavy traffic is to build more roads, when in fact that's proven entirely false - you're just creating more traffic. |

Probably because it wouldn't achieve his goal. The infinity stones each have a unique power and ability and are powerful as well. I doubt that the reality Stone would be able to recreate the power of the other Infinity stones.
Especially the Soul Stone.

I suppose since the other stones are also singularities, even if he altered reality, they'd be immune so he couldn't relocate them and they'd still be scattered about. Who knows? Comics are weird.  |

From Joe Russo: "The bubbles obviously a function of the Reality Stone," co-director Joe Russo said. "Thanos has the ability to manipulate." So, if Thanos can turn bullets to bubbles and erase people like The Collector with a thought, why can't he just erase half of the living beings in the universe already? "We were asked by a 12-year-old in DC at a Q&A why Thanos needed all six Stones and why he didn't just use the Reality Stone to alter reality," Joe Russo said. "The idea being that only something so dramatic of disposing life in half the universe could be accomplished with the power of all six Stones." As revealed when Drax and Mantis stood up after being reduced to shapes on the ground, the Reality Stone's effects don't appear to be permanent. "We sort of used it as an impermanent solution to things," screenwriter Stephen McFeely said. "It's illusory," Joe Russo added. "It creates illusions." comicbook.com/marvel/2018/08/01/avengers-infinity-war-thanos-reality-infinity-stones/ |

It's also like believing the cure to heavy traffic is to build more roads, when in fact that's proven entirely false - you're just creating more traffic. It's not the same is building more roads to alleviate traffic, people need to eat. Some people simply need to eat less, but many don't have anything at all. But I see your point. That's why I said he should force people to conserve instead. Also, Thanos understands the deaths are painful to those left behind. He shields Gamora from the executions on her home world and cries when he has to sacrifice her. There's really no reason other than megalomania and psychopathy to kill all of those people. He's a villain, and deep down he knows it. |

Because he's a fraud that just likes killing people of spite because they said he was wrong. I think psychologists call it the "I told you so" complex. |

Wait, that’s where JJ got the idea for the next 2 Star Wars episodes? Harry Potter did it first. |

You're right, it's better to cram in like 5 different stories into one, as BvS showed us. That'll save people money as they won't want to see it again because it's so bad and convoluted |
